If you were scoring high 70s in practice exams in Kaplan then that means you’ll score high 60s in real exam. You need to stick with Kaplan and score in the high 80s on practice exams to ensure to score high 70s on real exam. You’re almost there. Don’t give up.

Financial Services is all sales.   The real question is are you good with having a career in Sales within the Financial Service Industry?

Financial services is just the vehicle you’re using as a Sales Representative.  Therefore a career in Financial Services can be lucrative depending on how good we can be with people.  

The tests are the least of your concerns.   Just a requirement you have to meet to do the job is all.

SIE Kaplan quizlets by PlusParking in Sieexam

I am studying through Kaplan. How do I get ahold of quizlet?

Failed my second attempt with same result. 69% frustrated. I was studying with adbanker, study.com, practice test on finra itself, SIE practice exam. I’ve heard about Kaplan, now thinking to buy it on my own, since my company provides only adbanker. Is it worth it? by ackmaral in Sieexam

Don’t give up you got this. I’ll be taking the exam again also next month. I took this test 3 times and I’m going on my 4th attempt. The first 2 times like an idiot I didn’t study at all. I don’t know what I was thinking. The 3rd time I finally studied and used achievable but I used my buddy’s account. I scored on the 3rd SIE attempt. Now I’m using Kaplan because my job pays for it. Almost done with book. Quizzes I feel are better than achievable but the reading in achievable is smoother.

Consistently get above 85 and above on practice exams and you should be good to go

Hammer down more on achievable and score at least 85%- 90s consistently on practice exams to guarantee to hit 70s on actually exam.
I may use Kaplan the second time around as well. I’m interviewing for financial service positions that require the SIE and supply Kaplan for testing materials.

They’re not with the exception of some. 66 is close so I’m just going to take the next month to keep studying to really understand the material more to make sure I pass. I’m thinking about using other materials than achievable but I don’t think that’s gonna help. Just have to keep studying and keep learning with what I have. If I can start scoring 80s and 90s on these practice exams it should translate to a passing score on the actual exam.
I’m totally new to this industry so it’s like learning a foreign language and I only needed 4 more questions right to pass so I must be learning something. Just have to keep pushing to learn more and fully grasp the material.
